Summary
This program takes us to the small town of Suzu in Japan, where we explore some of the oldest traditions of the country. From the ancient Aenokoto ceremony, a harvest ritual in which the farmer invites the deity into his home, to the spirits called Kami, we learn about the deep importance of nature in Japanese culture. We also visit bathhouses, experience a tea ceremony, and learn about Wajima-Nuri, a traditional technique for making lacquerware.
